I Want A Dog

I want a dog to curl up beside me I want a dog 'cause he would keep me company I want a dog 'cause he would look out for me Cheer me up when I don't think I'll make it I want a dog, 'cause he'd try to lick my face And he would smile when I get home to my place I want a dog 'cause sometimes humans hold it all inside I need to feel connected I made the wrong choice Now I must pay the price Trapped in my body And my, oh my I want a dog to lead me to the backyard And fetch the ball as if he was my lifeguard I want a dog to softly walk beside me Guide me home, I wish I had a dog We're keeping score, we all are rational agents We make our deals to try to get more famous I made my bed, now I am gonna lie in it That's what I get, I just wish I had a dog I made the wrong choice Now I must pay the price Trapped in my body And my, oh my I made the wrong choice Now I must pay the price Trapped in my body And my, oh my I want a dog Ooh
